Our Thoughts:
Design: Simple. A picture of the player with all NCAA and school markings taken off the picture and then the main school color being put in the background to give it a splash of color. It allows for plenty of room for the autograph and the numbering of the card is up in the Upper Right hand corner out of the way of everything.
This product doesn't mess around. All 4 cards are autographed. There are green ink that are 1/1 cards. Did not pull any of those. There are cards with inscriptions on them, did not pull any of them. What I did pull are 4 autos signed with blue ink and all are numbered to 99 or less. There are silver cards out there that are numbered up to 149. All cards are on-card signatures.
I believe that the $70.00 price tag for these cards is a bit steep for what you get. Yes, 4 autographs are nice, but there isn't the wow factor that I would have expected. Another thing that might cause you pause is that certain players are inserted more than others. There are 136 Keenen Allen regular cards inserted in the boxes. The non-helmet picture alternative, there are 26. That is fine. But then you take Geno Smith and he has 64 regular cards inserted in boxes and 26 alternatives. Matt Barkley has 72 regular cards and 26 alternative ones. It doesn't make any sense.
The numbered for bronze, silver, gold, red and blue are different for each and every player. There is no standard. So your gold card could be numbered as low as 20 and as high as 99. I would figure that if it is a gold parallel or whatever they are calling it, that the numbering would be the same. It is not.
If the price came down to around $50.00, I would say that it is a fair price. But until that does happen, I would think twice before purchasing the product.
